Pour l’observation rapprochée de la tête d’un animal, il peut être nécessaire de procéder à une contention directe au moyen de licous, de façon à limiter les mouvements de la tête pendant la manipulation. Limitez le plus possible le recours aux bâtons conducteurs pour taureau, aux brides sans mors de fortune («war bridles»), aux tord-nez ou «tord-oreilles», aux lassos à groin pour les porcs, etc., car ces moyens sont douloureux pour les animaux. 1, record 2, French, - bride%20sans%20mors%20de%20fortune
